Release 1.0.0 version of core

[luizirber]

With the changes in 4.0 there is more consolidation in the MinHash API, so it is probably a good time to also be more serious about versioning of the core crate.

TODO:

• [ ] Create an experimental feature and put anything that is not needed for FFI/Python compat (like the Index implementations for SBTs and BIGSI). experimental is opt-in, and there are no stability guarantees.
• [ ] Create a CHANGELOG for core, with documentation on how to migrate for major changes
• [ ] Go thru https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/checklist.html and try to check as much as possible

[ctb]

is this something we want to block a 4.0 release on, @luizirber?

[luizirber]

Not a blocker (doesn't change anything in the Python API). It would be nice but it is quite a bit of work :grimacing:
